    Thanks so much for sharing. I need to lose 100+ pounds or face total knee replacement. I came to this site looking for encouragement and you were just the person I needed to hear from. Congratulations on all your successes and thanks for your inspiration. I hope to be in your shoes in a year and riding a bike with my children.

    GASP! HOLY MOLY!!! If you hadn't written that with such a great sense of humor, I'd have likely cried reading it! What a wonderful story... the weight loss was an amazing accomplishment, of course, but the fact that you had that big realization moment is also so wonderful and SO INSPIRING!!!

    I think I might have a 'girl crush' on you!!! :laugh:

    Thanks y'all. I have had arthritis for 20 years (or more who knows) and am having some major knee issues right now. I may have overdone it a smidge at an event this weekend. The doctor told me she was surprised I could bike at all with my bones scraping each other liKE that...clearly we had never met before. Anyway, once I get back to activity I will start with swimming again. I will be rappelling down a "skyscraper" on October 19, regardless of my knee situation. (I raised over $1000 for Special Olympics Texas in 3 days!)...no amount of pain or popping is going to prevent me from enjoying the coolest NSV in history. I may not be able to be as physically active as I had been for a bit, but there's nothing to stop me from continuing to lose weight through healthy eating. NO excuses and certainly NO REASON TO GIVE UP.
